Protecting Valuable Assets

Overview

Planes Specialized Logistics has been helping clients cost-effectively revolve and renew their technology for more than a decade. A leading refurbished hardware provider, offering data removal, data security, and data refurbishment services, needed an asset recovery logistics partner.
